Thank you very much for the caring, patient replies. I have not had the time to do it yet, but will soon try to work on the Kozaburo hair.

Part of the problem is that I was a bit lazy (and very busy) and wanted something more "plug-and-play." But there is very little good, short hair for men so I will check out the objaction thang.

Part of the problem is that I have done almost all my work in 2D (except for occasionally doing some very basic stuff in Poser, Cool 3D, Vue and Bryce). I now realize that for my work to grow, I need to delve more deeply into what 3D really is, and, of course, this is a whole new universe (compared to 2D) and will take much time. But I know the results will be worth it.

Again, thank you all for your help.
